Yes Interest @ 1.5% pm or part thereof.

agreed with Mr raja... interest @ 1.5% per month from the date of deduction to the date of deposit and late filing fee @ RS. 200/ day from date of section to the date of payment but not more than TDs amount which was not deposited. further if TDs is not deposited within one year of the due date then penalty prosecution will also be taken.
